Happy Birthday Trevor!

Our little "Trev" turned 4 years old on February 7th.
He really wanted to have a birthday party, so I finally caved in and agreed. He had nine of his little buddies from our neighborhood. It was so fun seeing these cute kids interact with each other. I think poor Trevor was a little overwhelmed. He was pretty quiet through the whole thing. Maybe next time, we should keep it to just a couple of his pals.

He wanted a dinosaur party, so that is what he got. They played bowling for dinosaur bones, pin the horn on the triceratops, made dinosaur tracks in playdo, and played musical dinosaurs. Then, he opened his presents and they ate cupcakes. The finished it off with a dinosaur egg hunt and watching a volcano erupt. Four year olds are so adorable and think everything is fun. I love this age! Trevor is still thanking me for the fun birthday, so of course all the work is so worth it!

Grandma and Grandpa Baldwin came down that night for cake and icecream!

Happy Birthday Trevor! We all love you!

A Happy Moment

I was looking through some pictures today, and realized that I have very few of my little Tyson smiling. Although he is mellow a lot of the time, he is still a pretty happy little guy! I took my camera and tried to take some pictures of him this morning while Trevor was at preschool. As you can see, he didn't want to cooperate, but at least I can prove that he is a happy little guy! I had a fun time chasing him around the house trying to get him to pose for me.

While we are on the subject of Tyson, he has mastered getting out of his crib. The past two nights, he has woke up several times and snuck into Mommy and Daddy's bed. I know it is a terrible habit to let him get into, but he is just so darn cute, it is hard to tell him no. He definately gets away with more than he should. We sure love him to pieces!

New Years Day 2009

We have a tradition of going to play in the snow for New Year's Day. We went to Beaver this year and had my parents go with us. We played for hours and had so much fun! We are all sad to have to get back to school, work, and life. We have some great memories of our holiday season this year!

My Little Cowboy

The picture is really bad for some reason, but I wanted to post my cute little cowboy entertaining us on Christmas!

Happy New Year 2009

I wish we could have the Christmas and New Year Holiday all over again. I so enjoyed every minute of it this year.

For New Years eve, we had a fabulous time! For the past several years, we have planned a New Years eve party with the Houston's. This year, I didn't get one planned, so I figured that we would just spend it with our little family. After talking with my mom, I realized that they didn't have plans either, so I invited them down. I mentioned it to my sisters thinking for sure that they would have other plans on such short notice, but they didn't and both of them and their families came down as well. My family doesn't get together nearly often enough. We had a great time. We enjoyed pizza and spent the rest of the night playing games, battling it out on the Wii, laughing, and enjoying each other.

What a wonderful way to ring in the New Year!
